Welcome to the Department of Dental Hygiene

The Department of Dental Hygiene appreciates your interest in the Dental Hygiene profession. The following information will provide you with the admission criteria and the process for applying to the program. Carefully review the information and contact the Department at (912) 344-2585 or e-mail Ms. Cynthia DeVoe, Department Secretary, at Cynthia.DeVoe@armstrong.edu if you have any questions.

The entire Dental Hygiene department and clinical facilities are located in Savannah Mall, next door to the rear entrance of Dillard’s Department Store (on Shawnee Street). You must access the building from the Mall parking lot; we do not have an entrance from within the Mall.

An accrediting team representing the American Dental Association Commission on Dental Accreditation will be visiting the AASU campus on October 30th and 31st. The team will review the dental hygiene program's ongoing ability to meet the Commission's Standards for Accreditation. A copy of the accreditation standards and/or the Commission's policy on third-party comments may be obtained by contacting the Commission at the address below.

The public is invited to submit comments, relative only to the accreditation standards and the dental hygiene program, no later than 60 days prior to the program's site visit. All comments should be addressed to:
